    BREAKING: Introducing the @Every Agent—an agentic coworker in Slack built to help you AI-pill your company. It comes with: - Everything you'd expect from a premium company agent. You can delegate difficult, long-running—like opening PRs, writing reports from large datasets, and monitoring social or customer feedback—and get high-quality results all from Slack - Every's best workflows, pre-installed and always updated. Compound Engineering to Compound Writing. We add more all the time. - Personalized Frontier Alerts. to help you keep up with new models. When we drop a Vibe Check, the Every Agent will read it and let you know if the new model is relevant to your workflow. - Zero markup on tokens. What we pay is what you pay—as token prices go down, so does your bill. You can try it today with $15 in free credits per person, up to $500 per workspace. After that: it comes with your $30/month Every subscription, plus tokens at cost. Add the Every Agent to Slack: Why it's hard to AI-pill your coworkers If you’re the AI-pilled one at work, you know the problem: you discover something incredible in Claude or Codex, but getting your coworkers to try it is another matter. The problem is that most of your AI use is invisible. You do it alone, in a terminal or a chat window. Your coworkers see the finished report or the five new ads, but they never see the request that produced them, or the corrections you made along the way. When you describe it afterward, it sounds like magic, but nobody learns a magic trick without seeing how it’s done. Why a company agent, in Slack, solves this problem When you use a company agent like the @every agent you go from prompting in private, to prompting in public. In a Slack channel, a coworker who would never open a terminal scrolls past a thread with your agent interaction and thinks: I could do that too. This lets you show instead of tell your coworkers about your discoveries. New AI tools and workflows then spread naturally and virally across your organization. That's why we made the @every agent for ourselves—and why we're releasing it to you today. Add the Every Agent to Slack:

    .@hammer_mt starts a fresh chat for every task, even for the same project. He does this to avoid context rot, which happens when accumulated history makes AI responses worse. These are 7 tips for context engineering: 1. Start a new thread whenever the tone or type of task changes. 2. Keep memory turned off so irrelevant context can’t leak into the current conversation. 3. Only upload the documents the task needs. 4. Keep the preferences you always want—like spelling, tone, or length—in a saved document and paste them in at the top of every new chat. 5. Write the full brief before you start and put everything the model needs into the first message rather than drip-feeding it. 6. When the AI makes a mistake, go back and edit your previous message so it has no memory of doing anything wrong. 7. Before you leave a long thread, ask the model the question Mike has recommended when working on recurring tasks: What information would have been useful to know at the start of this task that would have eliminated several steps or mistakes?

    A few weeks ago we launched the Every Agent, one Slack agent for the whole company. Here are @bigwilliestyle’s 3 rules for designing an agent the company can use: 1. Conversations: Help the agent follow a Slack thread. With a personal agent, the conversation is straightforward. You type, the model answers, and you’re done. In a Slack thread, anyone can jump in at any time. To feel like a coworker, a shared agent has to follow the conversation, even when several people are talking at once. Because we knew this was a likely point of failure, @paridhitweets and the team added a translation layer that organizes Slack messages for the model and sends its replies back to the thread. 2. Connections: Keep tasks running when logins change. For an agent to be useful, it has to reach the tools that people need. But each connection requires the agent to sign in to the tool through someone’s account. If that login breaks, it could stop everyone’s work. @leeknowlton has set up a task to connect to a “slot,” where any login that meets the task’s requirement can reside. When a login expires, the connection in the slot gets swapped out. Most people will never see any of this. Their automations will keep running as usual. 3. Permissions: Put access rules in code. When a company agent can reach everything the team has connected, each request raises two questions: Whose access is the agent using, and is the person asking allowed to use it? People treat Every Agent like a coworker, and human coworkers sometimes bend the rules. But an agent can’t make such judgments, and the rigidity can make it frustrating to work with. The rules about who can do what live in code, underneath the model, rather than in the instructions the model reads. This way, the model can’t be convinced to bend rules that it shouldn’t.

    If you’ve just joined a company and are still figuring out who does what, try asking your company agent. That’s what happened to @beckyisj, who joined the team earlier this year. She asked the Every Agent who people were, their responsibilities, and what unfamiliar terms meant. Because the company shares one agent, it could draw on conversations and documents she hadn’t found yet. 3 prompts to try on day one: • I’ve just joined [team]. What are the main projects they are working on right now? • Who is [name], what do they own, and what should I ask them? • Summarize the last week of #[channel]. My role is [x], and my goals are [insert here]. Caveat: Don’t forget to check the answers with people, too. A misattributed transcript sent her to the wrong colleague, but they were able to point her to the right person. Install the Every agent: Read more:

As CEO of Every, a company that writes about AI and builds AI software, Dan's about as close to the cutting edge as anyone I know. I’ve spent 13 years building my career around email, so this was difficult to hear. But as much as I hate to admit it, I think Dan might be right. The good news is there’s still time to adapt. In this episode, Dan shares what you can start doing now to make sure your emails still reach your audience.

    Early this year we built Plus One, our personal-agent product. In May, we deleted 86,730 lines of its code because it wasn’t working. A personal bot like OpenClaw was too much work to run: Each agent lived on its own cloud computer, which was too high-maintenance. Many of us ended up abandoning our bots. For the bots that remained alive, we noticed that they were most useful when borrowed by other people. @tedescau connected his Plus One to our analytics tool, and people on the team asked it analytics questions. We decided to start over, making two changes: 1. We let Anthropic’s Claude Managed Agents take care of the infrastructure. 2. We replaced our fleet of personal agents with one shared company agent. @bigwilliestyle breaks down the process behind the creation of the Every Agent: Install the Every Agent:

    Before the CEO woke up, the Every Agent flagged a customer who was still waiting for their test results. The customer, a farmer, had paid for bovine parentage testing and was asking for an update. The only issue was the engineer in charge was out sick. Thankfully, the agent’s morning report connected those facts and suggested a coworker who could cover. That’s one example from FeanixBio, a 28-person cattle genetics startup serving about 35 family-owned farms. Its team uses the shared agent for task reports and vacation coverage, too.

    This week on Every’s Frontier team: • @hammer_mt rewrote one headline and took simulated agent citations from 2 out of 240 sessions to 240 out of 240. • Mike tested whether agents would wait for a slow API. One waited 30 seconds in all 20 trials—but most agents never tried it. • Mike used LLM neurons to make memes measurable and trace their family tree. • Mike tested whether AI could anticipate @danshipper’s points. Given 400 guesses, it covered 93%—picking the right guess is still unsolved. • @RandyCounsman edited an entire Every Podcast episode in Everycut, the video editor built by @kieranklaassen. • @kplikethebird built a home for Frontier Writing and hired an AI idea scout to find fresh angles in Every’s Slack. • Mike mapped all 1,469 Every essays in 3D and turned gaps between topics into new article pitches. • Mike had three models take turns improving one writing skill. Its win rate against a comparison skill rose from 18% to 100% in an initial 4-round run; a later solo-model control matched the tuning score. • Mike ran Claude until it was using 46 GB of memory. Dan offered a spare Mac mini—with 16 GB of RAM.

    Taste in an age of AI may depend on materials intelligence, or MQ: an appreciation of the raw materials and techniques behind a finished product, argues @smc90 for her Thesis Statement. Think textiles and stitches, powder coatings, digital textures, or the enamel technique used in a piece of jewelry. The designer’s name and the story of who wore it give an object some meaning, but so does the mood board that inspired it or the behind-the-scenes photo of the process.

    Earlier this year, every teammate had a personal agent. Then none of us wanted to keep fixing and updating them. So we shifted to building a shared agent, relying on @AnthropicAI’s Claude Managed Agents infrastructure. @paridhitweets helped build the first version of the Every Agent that went live within a week. Now that the hard part was handled by Anthropic, we could focus on the parts that made the Every Agent more like a coworker: how it behaves, when it should stay quiet, and which connections each teammate can use. Security-wise, credentials stay out of the agent’s view, and changes to shared skills require human approval. There are some trade-offs: We’re tied to Claude, and persistent conversation history means the platform doesn’t support zero-data retention.
